Adverse Effects

WHAT YOUR COVID BOOSTER DID TO YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM (RW Malone)

A growing body of peer-reviewed research published between 2023 and 2025 documents that repeated mRNA boosting causes a progressive shift in the type of antibody your immune system produces against the virus from igG-1 and IgG3 to IgG 4 .

  IgG4 is a blocking antibody. It recognizes the virus and gets in the way, but it does not tell the rest of the immune system to attack. A 2025 study (Martín Pérez et al., Journal of Infection) found that healthcare workers who developed this IgG4 shift were more likely to get subsequent COVID-19 infections.

Documented Adverse Effects of the Immune Shift:

Increased risk of breakthrough COVID infection.

Loss of the immune functions that clear infected cells.

The damage is written into immune memory and impairment continues.

Children are also affected .

 

Suggested Effects from Theory and some evidence but not proven: (some of these have considerable supporting evidence)

IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD).

Impaired cancer immune surveillance.

  Interference with cancer treatments.

Weakened response to other vaccines and infections

Autoantibody generation.

Teens 5 Times More Likely to Develop Heart Conditions After mRNA COVID Vaccines

Teenagers were up to five times more likely to develop myocarditis and pericarditis, and up to 10 times more likely to experience an anaphylactic reaction shortly after receiving an initial two-dose series of the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines, according to a new peer-reviewed study. Children’s Health Defense Chief Scientific Officer Brian Hooker said that myocarditis and pericarditis significantly increase long-term mortality in these individuals.

 

 

Breakthrough Infections Common in Healthcare Workers Receiving 3rd Moderna mRNA-1273 COVID-19 Vax

 

the Belgian team reports a high rate of BK infection (61%) within 90 days following the booster suggesting a potential immune escape of the Omicron variant (either BA.1 or BA.5) against the mRNA-1273 vaccination, even in the early weeks post-booster dose.

Japanese Registry Study Maps Persistent Post-COVID Vaccine Symptoms (PCVS)

A report from 14 Japanese outpatient clinics published in Scientific Reports.

a registry-based observational study examining PCVS. Analyzing 179 clinically definitive cases (2020–2023). the study identified 493 adverse events, with 61.7% concentrated in general, neurological, and musculoskeletal systems. Severe events (≥Grade 3) occurred in 14.6% of patients , while 29.4% of events remained unresolved at follow-up . The authors conclude that persistent, multisystem symptom patterns warrant enhanced pharmacovigilance and long-term care frameworks.

 

Jefferey Jaxen investigates the health and policy questions surrounding 6G expansion, radio frequency radiation, paraquat, glyphosate, and pesticide liability protections. As the Trump administration pushes toward next-generation wireless infrastructure, we examine claims about weak RF safety standards, industry influence, and growing concern over long-term exposure.

DANGER OF 5G & 6G

Trump is pushing for 6G, and nobody is asking what happened to the safety studies we never got for 5G. The HighWire is asking, though.

WIRELESS RADIATION 5G AND 6G: WHEN INNOVATION OUTPACES SAFETY

As governments and tech companies push forward with the next generation of wireless infrastructure, a critical question remains largely unanswered: Is 6G safe? Jefferey examines growing concerns surrounding radio frequency (RF) radiation, the rapid expansion of wireless networks, and the lack of modern safety testing behind current exposure limits.

Despite billions of dollars in telecom lobbying and an aggressive global race to deploy 5G and 6G networks, many of the safety standards used today were based on decades-old experiments involving only a handful of animals exposed to RF radiation for short periods of time. Critics argue that these outdated assumptions fail to account for long-term exposure from cell phones, Wi-Fi routers, smart meters, satellites, and future implantable technologies connected to wireless networks.

The conversation explores the role of regulatory agencies like the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), the influence of industry lobbying, and the growing call for independent research into the health effects of wireless radiation. We also look at emerging policy responses, including efforts to limit cell phone exposure in schools, while some researchers warn about potential links between RF radiation exposure and issues such as DNA damage, neurological effects, and certain cancers.

As the world moves toward 6G connectivity, AI integration, and satellite-based global networks, this discussion asks whether innovation is moving faster than safety science, and why many experts believe it’s time to revisit wireless radiation standards.

while the Supreme Court weighs liability immunity for glyphosate, the US government is quietly trying to slip paraquat into the farm bill. The EPA’s own warnings say a single sip can kill with no known antidote. We break down the study they are using to call it safe. You won't believe it. 

PARAQUAT, PARKINSON’S, AND THE GROWING PESTICIDE PUSHBACK

New research and major legal battles are raising urgent questions about the safety of pesticides and herbicides used in the U.S. food supply. Hear the growing controversy surrounding chemicals like paraquat, a widely used herbicide that has been banned in more than 70 countries but is still permitted in the United States.

Facing thousands of lawsuits linking the chemical to Parkinson’s disease, manufacturer Syngenta has announced plans to stop producing paraquat, highlighting how courtroom pressure is often moving faster than regulatory action. At the same time, new scientific research is revealing alarming findings about pesticide exposure, including evidence that prenatal and early childhood exposure may cause DNA damage, epigenetic changes, immune system disruption, and developmental health risks.

Jefferey also explores a groundbreaking study suggesting that pesticide exposure could have health effects lasting across multiple generations, potentially influencing disease risk, fertility, and metabolic health for decades.

Meanwhile, controversial provisions in the proposed U.S. Farm Bill could shield pesticide manufacturers from lawsuits by limiting state-level challenges to federal pesticide labeling rules, sparking growing grassroots opposition from health advocates and environmental groups.

As debates intensify over the future of glyphosate, paraquat, and other agricultural chemicals, this discussion examines the role of regulatory agencies, scientific research, and public advocacy in shaping the safety of America’s food system.

Del sits down with Dr. Stuart Fischbein, one of California's leading voices on natural birth. A doctor who began in mainstream medicine and found a profoundly better way. His message to every woman who has been told her body needs to be managed and medicated to give birth:

We’ve convinced women in the last 100 years that their bodies cannot give birth without being cared for and managed. That’s crazy.

THE CRISIS IN MODERN MATERNITY CARE | DR. STU FISCHBEIN

enowned obstetrician Dr. Stu Fischbein joins the conversation to expose what he believes is a growing crisis in modern maternity care. With decades of experience delivering babies in both hospitals and home birth settings, Dr. Fischbein shares his journey from practicing highly medicalized obstetrics to advocating for a more physiological, mother-centered approach to childbirth.

In this powerful interview, Dr. Fischbein examines the dramatic rise in C-section rates, labor inductions, epidural use, and medical interventions in pregnancy, despite little evidence that these trends have improved maternal or neonatal outcomes. He discusses how hospital policies, financial incentives, fear of litigation, and standardized medical algorithms may be reshaping childbirth into a heavily managed medical event rather than a natural biological process.

The conversation also explores the role of midwives, home birth, delayed cord clamping, microbiome exposure, and patient autonomy, along with the importance of informed decision-making for expecting parents. Dr. Fischbein offers practical advice for families navigating pregnancy today—how to choose a provider, what questions to ask during prenatal visits, and why understanding birth before becoming pregnant can make a critical difference.

As maternal mortality rates and birth intervention statistics continue to climb in the United States, this discussion raises urgent questions about whether modern obstetrics is truly improving outcomes, or moving further away from nature’s design.
